- Terroir in focus – Gevrey Les CazetiersMany relatively unknown terroirs deserve a cheer and a nod for the potential qualities we find when it is brought forward by the right hedonistic friend. Les Cazetiers is not really unknown … but somehow deserves a shout-out … don’t you think?. I might even do a deeper article, but to be honest quite difficult ...
- Fixin Clos de la Perriére … the forgotten Téte de Cuvée – 2023When I started out with Winehog, it was with a base in the vineyards and the mapping of the terroirs. So I took a start in the old classifications, to explore the terroirs, also to find the vineyards that might have lost some of their mojo, so to speak. In 1855 when Lavalle made his classification of ...
- Vineyard Profile: Meursault Meix ChavauxTastings are my inspiration, and my lust for exploring vineyards is often fuelled by these delightful experiences. Sometimes, they are relatively unknown terroirs, but most often, they have just been overlooked by the wine “litterature” and the Grand Cru focused consumers. To say that Meursault Meix Chavaux is overlooked is not correct … however, the village ...
- Vineyard Profile: Puligny-Montrachet Champ GainTastings are my inspiration, and my lust for exploring vineyards is often fuelled by these delightful experiences. Sometimes, they are relatively unknown terroirs, but most often, they have just been forgotten … To say that Puligny-Montrachet Champ Gain is overlooked is perhaps what I would call a journalistic exaggeration. There are many great wines in the Puligny ...
- Les Suchots: The Flamboyant Vosne 1er CruOne of the largest and most challenging 1ers crus is Vosne-Romanée Les Suchots. Wine from this vineyard is produced by more than 100 domaines and negociants. Les Suchots is quite a diverse vineyard, with some areas showing great complexity while others have fewer of the qualities of a great terroir. Add to this producers that range ...

- The Cécile Tremblay plot on Griotte-ChambertinI finally got the data and location of the Cécile Tremblay plot on Griotte-Chambertin. This opportunity for Cécile arises as Domaine de Chézeaux was sold to Charles Van Canneyt (of Domaine Hudelot-Noëllat) in 2021. This sale has been unfolding according to the very complex rules of Burgundy. This is indeed complex as there were no less than ...
- Terroir Insight: Domaine Marchand-Tawse, Mazis-ChambertinMazis-Chambertin is a terroir with several interesting features – one being that Hospice de Beaune has a large plot on this vineyard – the other being that some of the old Gevrey estates have a plot with old massale selection pinot in this vineyard. One of the most prominent massale selections is the Maume selection, and ...
